Einsturzende Neubauten

Fünf Auf Der Nach Oben Offenen Richterskala

Format: LP
Record Label: Potomak
Condition: New (sealed/shrink wrapped)

Reissue on the band's own label - remastered - includes a printed inner sleeve - originally released in 1987

This is the fourth album by German avant-garde industrial band Einstürzende Neubauten. Considerably lower-key than all their previous releases, Fünf Auf Der Nach Oben Offenen Richterskala (trans. "Five On The Open-Ended Richter Scale"), with especially puzzling, almost country-rock track "Morning Dew," sung in English, but with moments of whip-cracking and atomic explosions. There's the same attention to rhythmic assault on this record as on the others, but there's a quieter, more sinister, darker, lower-key ambience at work here, with Blixa Bargeld's vocals right at the center-front of the mix, as he experiments with breath, lower pitches, whispers, and barely-audible squeals. There's a barely-restrained, beautiful tension here that never gets resolved, sounding as if the band is holding itself back from complete annihilation.

Track Listing: Zerstorte Zelle / Morning Dew / Ich Bin's / Modimidofrsaso / 12 Stadte / Keine Schonheit Ohne Gefahr / Kein Bestandeteil Sein
